so bottom line- what is the best combination? best meaning the biggest theft deterrent?

andn btw, anyone else think that they should make a combination mini ulock?
Best for what? If weight and cost are not important, put a Kryptonite New York 3000 around the rear wheel, and a Kryptonite Evolution around the front wheel. But, those two locks weigh about seven pounds, combined.

If you live in "Friendly Village", a Kryptonite Evolution or an OnGuard Bulldog around the rear wheel, and a beefy cable around the front wheel would be more than enough security.

I lock up my $300 bikes in my crime ridden inner-city neighborhood while I'm at the midnight movies, and don't worry a bit. But, I'd never let a "mega-buck" bike out of my sight. If the "bait" is alluring enough, some Pro crook is gonna show up with the correct tools to open ANY lock.
